Faxon ION-X Hyperlite Review (600+ Rounds) - Future of Lightweight AR15s!?

💥 Dive deep into the groundbreaking Faxon ION-X Hyperlite AR15 - a game-changer in the world of lightweight ARs!

🔹 Why Weight Matters: The ION-X weighs just 4.93 lbs out of the box. Fully outfitted with optics and suppressor, it's under 7 lbs - extremely light for a battle rifle. This reduces fatigue during long shooting sessions.

🔹 Innovative Design: It has a 16" Faxon Firearms pencil profile barrel to save weight. The adjustable Faxon gas block lets you tune the gas system. The carbon fiber handguard resists heat buildup.

🔹 Top Components: It has a crisp, clean breaking Hiperfire EDTM single stage trigger. The charging handle and BCG are lightweight. The ergonomic pistol grip and minimalist stock reduce weight.

🔹 Optics and Suppressor: We added a Primary Arms SLx 1-6x24mm optic with ACSS Aurora 5.56 reticle for fast target acquisition and ranging. It has upgraded optics, an integrated throw lever, and clear glass. We also used a Primary Weapon Systems BDE 5.56 suppressor, made from 3D printed aerospace-grade titanium. It has removable baffles, universal mounting, and a durable PVD coating.

We put over 600 rounds through the ION-X, the majority suppressed. It held up great, was accurate right out of the box, and was a pleasure to shoot. At just 7-8 lbs fully equipped, this is one of the lightest and most versatile AR-15s out there.
